I cry myself to sleep
one more night
looking at you
from a distance
close enough to torment
far enough to yearn
wondering, is anything
salvageable from
the ashes of the good
years we burnt
in the name of love
can I rest my chin
on your shoulders
inhaling your essence
as we embrace
wishing each other well
more importantly
is it worth it?
after all the hell
you gave me
the violence
mental and physical
making me question
my sanity
the timing of your
departure
the dirt you gathered
to throw at me later
is it worth it?
why is fury
not the outcome
Of my gaze
fixing on you
the past was torn
into times good and bad
I chose to keep the good
you kept the other part
why?
